It's been a long time...

I'll try to do some catch-up, beginning with Tjabe's kindergarten/sixth grade graduation ceremony from May.

The kindergarten boys escorted the sixth-grade girls to their seats at the beginning of the ceremony.  Such a dapper guy.

Tjabe and fellow buddy Jackson waiting for the others to come on stage

Getting his certificate and finally being able to sit down again!  Whew!

And today Sam and I celebrate our 10-year anniversary.  Our gifts to each other this year were a baby and a house.

Here's the baby (so far - we should be meeting her in a few weeks).
